cstephens Report post Posted February 27, 2011 I have a very new Cobra Class 4 machine and I have noticed that for some reason it seems that my top thread is getting twisted and not laying down flat. Was wondering if anyone could help troubleshoot. I watched steves DVD and the I'm threading it right so don't know what it could be. All help is much appreciated.

Art Report post Posted February 28, 2011 The pretension disks will unlay the thread a bit as it goes through, but the twist has to go somewhere so it backs up. Use the presser foot lift (pedal) to detension the pretension disks and pull a yard or so of thread off (down through the needle) and it should get rid of this. Coats, Linhanyl, and Rice thread used to be notorious for this because they are/were layed so tightly.
